Gregory leaned his head on the table. His eyes widened.
Didn't he say I can live if I don't lie? However, I spoke the truth. Why is my chest hurting so badly? I
can't breathe!
Patrick ignored him and pulled open the door to leave.
Thereafter, the police walked in and realized that Gregory had a heart attack. The police wanted to
bring him to the hospital, but it was too late. He had already stopped breathing.
Gwendolyn bought her three children to the streets to shop. She first brought them to their favorite fast
food joint. Normally, she did not allow them to eat junk food.
However, as she had not spent much time with them recently, she wanted to make them happy.
In the restaurant, Juliette chomped on a chicken wing happily, and her small mouth was oily.
Gwendolyn furrowed her brows at that sight.
She looked at her two sons who were eating dignifiedly and elegantly, then looked at her daughter.
Her daughter had oil all over her face and hands. She could not help but wonder who her daughter took
after.
Justin gave Juliette a napkin to wipe her mouth with. She then giggled merrily.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Thanks Justin!”
Justin pushed the food toward her. “This is the food you like to eat.”
Her two sons only ate the hamburgers, but Juliette liked to eat everything. Juliette was undoubtedly a
foodie.
After their meal, they went to the shopping mall beside the restaurant. She was going to buy some toys
for the three children.
Juliette picked a beautiful Barbie doll whereas Julian and Justin bought Lego bricks. They were not
interested in other toys.
Despite that, they loved to play with Lego.
After purchasing the toys, the four of them went to a shop to buy a princess dress for Juliette.
As they passed by the Denzy Kenington shop, Gwendolyn paused and walked in. The brand was
founded by her mentor, Tiffany. The three children went to a corner to play and wait for her to choose
some clothes.
She and her children only had each other to depend on for the past few years. Each time she went
shopping, her children would accompany her. They were used to playing among themselves and giving
her ample time to pick her things.
Gwendolyn noticed that the spring designs were already out. Even that collection was designed by her.
She had never attended the Denzy Kenington Spring Fashion Show but had seen reports about it on
television. The show was impressive and successful.
As she looked at the clothes that she had designed hanging in the shop, she felt rather happy.
She reached out a hand and ran her fingers over the dress. There was a single lotus flower on the hem
of the dress. The design was refreshing yet fairy-like.
It was the design that she loved the most. She narrowed her eyes and smiled.
Suddenly, a voice interrupted her train of thoughts. “Mom, what do you think about this dress?”
Felicia snatched that dress away from Gwendolyn and held it against her body. She suddenly turned to
look at Gwendolyn, and her expression darkened significantly.
“Gwendolyn.”
When Gwendolyn caught sight of them, the smile on her face froze. Why would I meet them just when
I'm in a good mood? How disappointing.
Candace was enraged when she saw Gwendolyn. The former thought of the fact that her younger
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbrother had been sent to jail and might need to serve a jail term.
Furthermore, Patrick almost died because of Gwendolyn, and that had caused Felicia to lose her
appetite and sleep these days.
Felicia wanted to visit him in the hospital but was chased out by security every time.
She had finally received news of his discharge from the hospital that day. Thus, she wanted to buy a
pretty dress and wear it to meet Patrick.
Gwendolyn, Felicia, and Candace just had to bump into each other there of all places.
Candace crossed her arms and shot Gwendolyn an apathetic look.
“Manager? Please come here for a moment.”
A lady wearing a uniform rushed over. She appeared to be in her thirties, and she nodded slightly.
“Hello, Mrs. Ashton. I'm the store manager here. My name is Jane Langley. Is there anything I can help
you with?”
Candace pointed at Gwendolyn. “A poor person like her can't afford the clothes here. Get her out of
here.”
When Candace thought of the fact that her brother might end up serving time in the jail, hatred welled
up in her heart. She wanted to make things difficult for Gwendolyn and embarrass her. Besides,
Candace even wanted to hit Gwendolyn, but she knew that the latter was rather skillful. Thus, she did
not dare to do so and merely instructed the manager to do that on behalf of her.
